Some of them have over a hundred lines of lists that I would like to appear in the PmWiki pages pretty much the same way - a line followed by a blank line followed by the next line, followed by a blank line, and so forth.  Cutting and pasting into the PmWiki edit window it adds all the lines together and the output is not real readable.  I don't want to just tell it preformated text because I would like to be able to put links and so forth in some places.
